PHOEBE
"That's not fair, how do you know I was the one". He said removing his hands from my eyes, he came to sit beside me, Sean scoffed."Your hands are so soft and unique and I also perceive your perfume". I said smiling."I think I will have to take my leave now". Sean said standing up."I will see you later". I said and he left.Brian placed a kiss on my lips, he broke it, holding my hand. "How was your exam?". I asked, holding his hand with my hands."It was great because I was just seeing the image of a beautiful damsel that put a smile on my face". He said and I frowned."Who is that beautiful damsel?". I asked, rolling my eyes."It's Phoebe, my one and only, I love her so much". He said happily."I so much love this guy called Brian, he is my everything". I shouted joyously. He hugged me from behind, kissing my neck continually."Hey, hey people are staring". I said and a moan escaped through my mouth."Lovey-dovey, how I wish I had a girlfriend". Seth said, I blushed, we disengaged."Seth you are such a disturbance". He said pouting."You look cute". I said laughing."I know I love cute, hearing it from you increases my joy, I love you". He said pecking me."I love you very much". I muttered."I am lost here, I don't need anybody to tell me that". He said leaving at once. My face turned pale and sad after moments of silence."Hey babe what is the matter". He asked, getting worried. "I don't know what fate holds for us". "How I don't understand you". I stood up and I started going towards the stairs, he followed without questioning. I found my way to the rooftop, I laid my hands on the edges of the rooftop. He hugged me from behind, resting his head on my back. We remained in that position for a short while. I turned to make him stand. "You will be done with your studies in two months". He nodded. "What am I going to lose or gain?Am I going to ever see you again?Are we going to break up the relationship we had for two years now?. I have tried asking myself these questions but I couldn't provide an answer for it, I am sure you will". I said almost tearing up, he smiled. I am an emotional person."I have being waiting for you to ask me such question. You are not going to lose anything, instead you will profit a lot. I have promised myself to work harder to make you as comfortable as my wife. We are never going to break up". He said, I stare deep into his eyes."Promise me you are going to do all this for me". I said tearing up."I promise". He said, we hugged each other tightly, I cried on his shoulders. We disengaged, "I don't like seeing you in tears, please stop crying". He said, wiping off my tears."Can I invite you to my house?". He asked, I have been expecting this from him. I don't know anyone from his family. He simply said he lived far away, that he only came to study here."Yes I will". I said smiling."That's my baby girl". He said, I chuckled, we hugged."Couple". Seth said, causing us to separate."What are you doing here". Brian asked, he faked his anger."Another exam will be starting in the next few minutes, don't you check your time". Seth said, he checked his time."I totally forgot, see you later my love". He said placing a kiss on my lips, he started leaving, he stopped, he turned and he winked at me, I smiled, I kept staring until he was out of sight. I really hope he keeps his promise, I would die if he ever thought of leaving me.****
When we were done for the day, I went to Abigail's block to wait for her. Brian and Sean block is far from Abigail's block, she studies law while they study Business Administration. I bet they will ever meet.
Abigail is an introvert, she hardly make friends, the only friend she has, is her childhood friend Rebecca, she ghost me in the house, she is too boring for my liking, but what can I do, she is my sister, I have to endure, only few students knows me as her sister we hardly speak in school. So pathetic. I peeped into the examination hall. "Oh God they are still writing". I leaned my back against the wall. My phone beeped. I brought it out from my pocket, it's a message, I unlocked it, it is from Brian, a smile appeared on my face."Where are you?". He asked."I am in the law faculty waiting for my sister". I replied."Okay, anyways I am through with my exams". he texted back."That's good, kindly send your home address". I texted taking in my lips."Are you coming today?". He replied with a happy sticker."No I am not coming today, don't know when I will leave here, perhaps, I won't tell you when I will come it is my little secret"."Okay, I am out of the school premises'. He texted then I smiled not replying."Are you writing the whole textbook?". I asked as she gave me her bag. They finished minutes ago."It is not easy being a law student". She said as we started walking."There is nothing in this law course of a thing". I scoffed."There is a lot, you have to know all the constitution offhand, you have to read multiple books at a time which you must have to understand and be able to interpret, you must read constantly for you not to forget things". She explained."I now know the reason why you have been an introvert all your life". I nodded."I have to minimize time in everything I do, for me to create time to read". She said getting into her car, I followed. "I thought you came with your car". She asked."Yes I called the driver to pick it up some minutes ago". I said sitting properly."I am done for". She muttered."What was that?". I asked, pretending not to hear her."Nothing". She said igniting the car engine, it starts immediately.WALTERI was dumbfounded when he revealed his condition to me. "No I can't do it". I said almost yelling."I will give you more time to think about it, bye for now". He said leaving."No, no I can't do that to my daughters, they are my gems, no". I muttered, pacing to and fro in the office."Dad, what is the matter?". Andrew asked."Mr Jamie was here". I said, he opened his mouth in shock."Why was he here?Did he say anything to you?". He asked immediately."He said he would award the contract to me". "Wow that's great news Dad". He said happily, he stopped immediately he noticed I wasn't happy."Dad, that is good news, why are you not happy?". He finally asked."He wants your sisters to marry his sons". I broke the news, he was more shocked than I was."What?!!!, He wants my sisters, that is not going to be possible". He said angrily."I am caught in the middle of an ocean, I don't know what to do anymore, the company is going to lose almost all the shareho
PHOEBE"Phoebe, where are you going?". Mom immediately asked me to come out of my room.I want to visit a friend, I will be back before you know it". I said walking to the stairs."A friend???, dressed like this". She questioned. I wore an off shoulder red short gown, with a black belt and bag."Yes, a friend". I rushed downstairs before any further questioning. I went into the car, igniting the engine, it started.I trailed the address given to me, I found the house, it does not look like a student house. It is a small mansion, I know he is rich but not to this extent. I checked the address again. It is the same address, I packed properly, I came down locking it. I walked towards the door, I pressed down the bell, no response, I pressed it again. "Who is there?". Someone asked from inside. I kept mute, the door was opened."Phoebe it's you". Seth said"Yes it is me". I said, rolling my eyes."Is this your house?"."No, it is for Brian""Can you at least let me in, my legs are hurtin
Front Mark College PHOEBEI came along with my sister today, thank God she did not leave me behind. We drove into the school compound,and she parked properly. She turned off the car engine, she opened the door, I opened mine also, we got down."Bye, Phoebe, don't cause trouble today, be on your best behavior". She said winking at me."What did I do now?". I asked, hanging my hands on my hips."You did nothing, I was just looking for your trouble instead, you were very sad yesterday, do what happened". She asked as we walked to the swing. "Nothing, I simply had a mood swing". I said casually."Mood swing??, Phoebe???". She questioned staring at me with a don't lie look."What!!!!". I said nothing, what else did you want me to say? I said walking away."Come back here, I know you too well. I stopped, it's okay if you don't wanna tell me, whatever it is make sure you think over it, don't make rash decisions for you not to regret it later. She said". I sighed."Come
We started leaving one after the other since she kept mute, we tried forcing her to say something, all to no avail. I know it hurts but at the same time she needs to speak her mind. She is an introvert doesn't mean she shouldn't talk. I thought to myself as I walked upstairs."Phoebe wait up". I heard a voice,I turned to see Andrew."Hey Phoebe". He greeted me, and I replied."Are you going to your room?". He asked as we continued walking."Yes since she is not ready to talk". I replied."Do you think she will accept the offer?". He asked."I am afraid I can't say. I don't know what is going on in her mind, I hope she won't do anything foolish". I snapped."I trust her she won't do anything to herself, she needs time to think about it". He said again."Yes that's all she needs, she needs much time to think properly, marriage is a lifetime contract". I said in agreement."Let me ask you, what if you were the one, what would your answer be?". He asked."I will say no with immediate eff
PhoebeI was woken up by the noise of glasses, my heart skipped a beat, my mind went to Abigail, I quickly ran to her room, I met Mom, Dad and Andrew there already. We banged the door, we pleaded with her to open it as I was told earlier it was locked inside. She refused. I turned to Andrew with teary eyes, "I told you she might do terrible things to herself, but you said she can't, she is doing it now". I said, I started crying. He hugged me as Mom threatened Dad. Shortly we heard her screams, I flared up." Abigail, please stop hurting yourself". I shouted banging the door heavily. Andrew left. He came back with two huge guards."Please all of you move back, they will break down the door". He said pointing to them. The guards moved back, they ran to the door at great speed, they jumped at the door with their left arms at the same time the door broke, and we rushed in.It was dark, I switched on the light, I was shocked with what I saw. Broken glasses were all ove
AbigailI heard tiny voices in my room, I opened my eyes slowly, it was blurry, my head started to ache badly."She is waking you". I heard a familiar Phoebe's voice.I placed my hand on my head, as I continued to feel the ache, I struggled to sit, Phoebe helped me."Is she awake?".. I heard Dad's voice."Yes she is". Phoebe answered happily."My head, arrgh". I groan in pain."Sorry, sorry". Mom said coming over to the other side of the bed."It will subside soon". She assured me. "Phoebe go and get her food she needs to eat and take her drugs". Mom said happily. She might have been very worried. I hugged her tightly."I am sorry Mom, I am sorry Dad I won't do that again". I apologized, blinking my eyes severally to prevent the ache."No my child you don't have to be, stop talking you are going to increase the ache, just relax okay". She cared."Yes Abigail, don't talk again, we've forgiven you before you apologized". Dad said smiling. I nodded, as tears trickl
SEANI saw Phoebe going to the rooftop sadly, I followed her, I hid when I saw Brian. I know Phoebe will be mad at him but I was wrong, she was the one apologizing instead. I saw everything they did. I came out of my hiding place when Brian left with his friend.I can't help but admire Phoebe, she has everything I ever wanted in a girl, but unfortunately, she is not mine and she can never be mine. I walked closer to her as the breeze blew her hair, I stood at her back gently without her noticing, the breeze blew her hair randomly on my face."Sean". I heard her name, I opened my eyes which I shot earlier."What are you doing?". She asked"I wanted to scare you, but you scared me instead". I said laughing nervously."You actually scared me". She said smiling."You smiled too much today". I teased."Yes because I have a lot of reasons to smile". She replied."Tell me about it". I said pretending to be eager."Last night"... She explained to me."Wow you really de
In The Evening We all surrounded the dining table, the sound of cutleries can be heard along with the sound of the ceramic plates, we observed table manners, we talked before or after eating. "Why don't we all watch a movie tonight, as a family?". Abigail suggested after eating. Yay that will be fun. I shouted jumping up in excitement. "That will be great". Mom said smiling. "I love that idea, we did that a long time ago". Dad said walking to the sitting room. We all followed, settling down on a reddish brown sofa. "Choose a movie for us". Andrew said, his eyes glued to the laptop with him. I and Abigail chose a movie. "Big bro you can't watch a movie with a laptop when we have a big screen in front of us". I said to him, he scoffed. He shut it off and dropped it on the center table. "Your will is done boss". He said it in a funny way, we all laughed. "This movie is really a great one". Mom said laughing. "Yes it is, I love the way the lead role acted". Dad said, smiling. It
Seven Years Later. PhoebeYoung Richardson ran around the sitting room with Rachel Phoebe's friend."Catch me if you can." Rachel teased running faster."Mommy tell aunt Rachel to drop my doll." Richardson shouted breathing heavily."Rachel, what is happening there." Phoebe asked shouting from the kitchen."Don't mind us honey cup we are just having fun." Rachel shouted.I relocated to California after the birth of Richardson. It wasn't an easy procedure. I talked to Sean about relocating, he supported me with the little I had, I was able to rent an apartment. I walked hard, I was able to pay him school fees. I worked in a restaurant currently. Since I couldn't get a white collar job because of my educational background. I didn't hear anything about my parents, I only heard Abigail got married days after I left. "Breakfast is ready." I announced. Rachel and Richardson came running immediately. They sat on the chair. "Aunt, this is my sit, you need to go and sit some
Author's pov"Dad what did you just say?". Sean said walking behind his father."I said, Phoebe is pregnant." Mr Shawn replied yelling."Have you told her parents?." Sean asked looking concerned"Yes I have, I informed them right away." Mr Shawn said sitting down."Where could she have being, is she alright?. Sean asked questions inwardly. I pray nothing happened to her. He rushed out. "Sean, Sean where are you going to." Mr Shawn asked. He stopped on his track and turned"I am going to my house, I will see you tomorrow Dad bye." He shouted running out."This boy is all over Phoebe, I know he will be going to look for her."Sean got to the Walter's Mansion. He asked the security about Phoebe, he was told she was sent out. He was shocked to his marrow bond. I need to look for her. He drove out of the place immediately. He showed people her picture in the heavy rain. He stopped the car as he saw Phoebe under a tattered shade. She is shivering like a person who I going to die out of col
PhoebeI drove into the compound. I packed properly, I came down walking into the main door, I pushed it. I saw everybody sitting, they stood up immediately they saw me.Were they expecting me?, He has told them already what will I do?. I asked myself, I stared at the ground."Phoebe are you truly pregnant?." Dad asked, I could feel shivers ran through my spine with a great speed."Answered me." He thundered, I felt his words threatening my body system."If you don't answer me I will kill you right here, right now." He threatened, everybody looked at him in shock."Yes I am." I quickly said in order to avoid his huge punishment."How dare you bring a bastard child in to my house and who gave you the authority to sleep around with men?, Huh." Mom asked with tears rolling down her cheek."My unborn child has a father." I fired with no remorse they looked at me closely."I want to see the father of this thing". Mom shouted pointing at my tommy.Tears began t
PHOEBEBrian's House.I stopped at Brian's house, I came down, walked towards the house, I knobbed down the handle, I went in. I am now a regular visitor to his house. He was playing a game with his friend."Hey Seth". I greeted, and he waved at me.Brian stood up, hugging me. "How are you, baby?". He greeted me."I am fine". I said, I felt dizzy again, I staggered grabbing my head. He held me before I could fall. He led me to the nearest couch, he sat me down."What's wrong?, you don't look okay". He asked sitting next to me, placing his palm on my neck and on my forehead repeatedly."I have been feeling dizzy and throwing up lately". I explained."Then what is stopping you from visiting a doctor". He said with concern."I will go tomorrow, I will just rest today". I said resting my back on the headboard."Let's go to my doctor, I don't like seeing you like this"."It is fine. I will find my way to the doctor tomorrow"."Why does it feel like you won't go"... "I
PHOEBE2pm, the same day.I paced around the room ten thousand times, checking the clock every minute and second.The alarm on my phone rang loudly. I rushed to pick up my bag from the bed , and I rushed to the door. No, I will go and meet her first before carrying my bag. I rushed downstairs immediately. I saw Mom watching a movie, so I walked closer to her."Mom". I called feeling nervous, I sat next to her on the couch."Yes my darling daughter". She said without taking her eyes off the TV screen"I want to take permission from you". I let out the words slowly."Come on talk, you are distracting me from the movie I am watching". She said a little bit loudly."Mom, I want to visit a friend. Can I go?". I asked, I could feel sweat covering my temple."You can go but don't be late". She said, I jumped on her. "Thank you mummy". I said running upstairs.I retouched my make-up, I checked myself in the mirror for the upteenth time. I rushed out immediately."Mom bye I love
